Seafood

West Ashley

About the restaurant

"King Claw is inspired by the low country, viet-cajun style of boil-in-a-bag seafood that retains all the juicy flavor combinations of the sea. We then add our own unique blend of spices to seal the deal. You won’t find our flavor combination anywhere else. We prepare our seafood fresh to order and encourage our patrons to get their hands dirty with our signature seafood combinations. We firmly believe in bonding over great food and drinks with family and friends, and what better way than to dig right in with your hands? Come open up a bag, where the juiciness awaits you."

It was our first time eating here. We had the seafood boils. The shrimp and crab legs were nicely done not mushy which is what can happen when you get a boil. The potatoes were good and not an overwhelming number of them. The only item I didn’t care for was the corn. This was mushy. Our server Teresa was great, she made recommendations and was very friendly and attentive. We would definitely go back again.

The overall experience was great! The only reason it didn't get 5 stars across the board is because there are few places I've been in my life that are perfect in every way. This is one of the best places in Charleston.

Our server Ella was very friendly and attentive. Fried Calamari was delicious, and both entrees; Chicken Picatta and Eggplant Parmigiana were well worth it.
